El Granada PTO is an all volunteer organization with a mission to enrich our kids' school lives, foster pride in our school, encourage family involvement and build our school community.
We aim to fill the gaps between public education funding and the needs of our kids, providing high quality, inspiring educational opportunities for every child in our community. The vast majority of our budget is spent on educational supplements (programs, field trip and assemblies) and school supplies, with the rest put towards community building within the school.
*We fund curriculum components that are only intermittently funded by the state, such as art, music, physical education and science through funding of extra programs and staff.
*We support basic supplies requirements, such as classroom supplies and copy paper.
*We support the classroom teachers in facilitating enrichment of the school curriculum, in the form of stipends and discretionary spending.
*We initiate community based events and family fun nights to include the entire El Granada community, and show our support for our wonderful staff on Staff Appreciation Week!
*We organize the efforts of our parent volunteers to impact classroom learning (art-in-action; arts and science week), field trips, school beautification and much, much more.
Your donation will make a huge difference in what we are able to provide to our students next year and we are so grateful! Help us spread the word about our campaign to friends and neighbors and give our Instagram Reel a 'like' to help us win more money for the school!
